Thanks for your kind words. The cut was surprising, to say the least. I’m not going to battle screen names with no personal connections to DCC on a message board. Dayton is a beautiful girl and talent

Looks to me just like the locker room pictures we see every year. She’s standing in her locker, her family jumps in a picture with her. I see nothing scandalous about it. Every year girls post picture

 I wish the DCC would lighten up with weight issues and let the women put on some more weight 

 Some of the cheerleaders looked almost anorexic on the Bimini shoot 

 I think they send a bad message to young women in order to be successful you have to be almost anorexic 

 I don’t think Simone looked terrible for having gained 14 pounds maybe a little toning but she should’ve still been on the squad

It was Selina.

IIRC, two years ago, an insider came through and said nearly the entire squad was on weight warning. That, to me, was just astonishing. What kind of restrictions do you have that the entire squad has to be on weight warning?

Their contract states that they have to maintain their audition weight.

Hmm, that’s odd. From the context of the comment, I would’ve assumed it would be in reference to the Jenna/Erica situation. Wonder why it commented on this photo? Anyone have any insight? 

From what I remember, Holly & Maddie were pretty good friends & I'm pretty sure Holly helped Maddie out enough that she made the squad the following year.  After Holly got in trouble over fraternizing, you never really saw pictures of them together, so I guess the comment is saying that Maddie bailed on Holly when Holly could have used a friend.

This guy is very scary.

They “accepted Holly’s resignation” right after that office visit. Holly wasn’t THERE to take pics with anyone. I think that guy is a stalkery, mean person who has been relentless on other girls’ pages as well. He’s obsessed.

I'm not saying what he said is accurate, just what I think his thought process was.  My opinion...I think Holly hung around with a clubbing crowd & Maddie just kept her distance.

Pretty sure she’s referring to the drama with Holly before she actually resigned. I’m sure there had been drama long before Holly quit, and maybe Maddie distanced herself.

Amy L. was the Gameday Girl for last night's game. Part of me felt that it should've been Lexie since it was her birthday, but I know that's not how it work.

Did she get it two games in a row? I thought I read that she was Game Day Girl the last game? I looked on the team’s FB page and can’t find a running “list.”  Not doubting you, just confused.

Does anyone else hate the cover photo they chose for the calendar this year?  I love Kelli, but I just don't think the photo is cover worthy.  Plus, they have the same shot on the front and back of the calendar.  kelli and Lacey are doing the same pose, where you see their behind with their face tilted back to the camera.  

Who got the cover? Where can I see it?

I just re-read the caption of her post and realized that I overlooked the part where she said that she was last week's Gameday Girl. My bad! ?

The Cowboys' social media team have been slacking for years now and really need to step it up. We used to get gameday videos on time, but now, they're posted days or weeks after games and certain events.

I realize that. My point is: If your entire squad is on weight watch, then your weight requirements are too restrictive. 

Right! I don’t get why they’re so obsessed with weight, as opposed to measurements anyway. Many women can fluctuate in terms of pounds on the scale but still look the same. Sure, if a girl’s uniform no longer fits, I get why that’s a problem, but if not, I don’t see the big deal. It’s not like they’re gymnasts or competitive cheerleaders who are being lifted into the air.

I really think the DCCs should’ve blocked that Janitor Jim guy by now, honestly. It seems like all he does is badger the girls about the Holly situation.

I thought Melissa R said they could stay within 5 pounds which is still hard during certain times.

The DCC needs to block this guy, and that other guy we've discussed.  There are several that, in their mind, probably feel they are being very complimentary, but come off as creepy.

Ok, having to stay within 5 pounds isn’t completely unreasonable IMO, as long it’s limited to one year. If for example, Jenna and Lacey are expected to be within 5 pounds of where they were at 18 in their 6th and 5th years on the team, then that’s different. I still hate that they weigh them in the evening though. That’s the worst time IMO.

Bringing over @Tootie's post from the show thread:

They are in order by seniority & alphabetically:

                                                                             Lacey (5 yrs)

                                                                    Amy, KaShara (4 yrs)

                             Heather, Jessika, Kelli, Khalyn, Maddie, Tasha, Tess, Yuko (3 yrs)

                   Alexis, Christina, Gina, Lauren, Lexie, Miranda, Molly, Rachel, Savannah, Tara (2 yrs)

       Hannah, Jalyn, Jasmine, Kristin, Lily, Lindsay, Madeline, Malena, Rachel, Taylor J, Taylor T, Victoria (rk cnd)

Alanna, Amber, Ashlee, Brennan, Briana, Bridget, Caroline, Cianna, Daphne, Dayton, Erin, Gabby (rk cnd)

*****

I know we've talked about who could be point next year if Lacey and Kash retire, but I'm also curious about who would be the G1 leader. I can't imagine they would give it to Amy -- she's just not a strong enough dancer. Honestly, I think if Tasha was a stronger dancer, they'd love to give her point and G1 - she's right up their alley.

Khalyn...idk. In terms of seniority and prior leadership experience, if Lacey, Kashara, and Amy all retire, Maddie would be next in like. I  just feel like the remaining group of 3 years is kind of lackluster. Khalyn and Tasha come closest to having the total package from that group, and I think it’s arguable as to whether either is a top 5 dancer on the team. I definitely don’t think Tasha is.

I don't remember which thread I posted it in, but when Crystal was point in her 3rd year, Ashton and Evan were with her in the triangle, even though they were 2nd year vets at the time.  So, don't forget the rookies!

Gina is totally being groomed to move up to be point. I can easily see her being Group Leader next year. Maddie is in the triangle already but I don't know that I see her being point. I could totally see it being another Kash/Lacey situation again with Maddie as G1L and Gina as point. Honestly Gina has been killing it too, so unless she messes up this year I can totally see her getting it. Kahlyn I think has been said is an injury risk, which works against her. I don't see Tasha as being point but potentially in the triangle if she comes back.   I can't remember - has Heather said she is retiring?

I agree this seems most likely.

@scorpio1031 I forgot Ashton and Evan jumped to the triangle so soon. I admit, these rookies are really good, but I can't imagine any of them are so strong that they would beat out the current 2-year Show Group members.

Lacey might try to pull a Jenna and go for a 6th year in hopes of getting point, but I'm not sure it would work in her favor. I hope she doesn't try it.

At a certain point ...haha, you should just retire, let your body rest, move on with your life.  And it shouldn't be the reason why you want to come back for a 6th year.

Thanks for the correction. 

I wonder what RCl policies are regarding weight.  I would  Never let my daughter try out because it seems like the women must have to starve themselves to maintain an impossible weight. I would still be a fan even if they gained 10 pounds. Even Vk had a problem with weight. 

The shorts are really too small and remind me of a diaper.

Quoting you for context - I think this leans towards some girls get wiggle room on WW and some do not.  She looks very boxy and thick to me, much different than she has appeared in the past.  I'm surprised they have her in the triangle.  Kashara is different IMO.  She's fit and toned.

I’m expecting Amy to retire too and half the third years as well (Yuko’s visa probably is up this year, Khalyn has been injured a lot, Heather seems to be on the doghouse, Tasha might want to focus on her family and if Maddie is still in ww for most of the season, she might want to retire while on top. Jessika should probably retire too but she will stay for 10 years just to spite us). I can’t even predict who’s going to be GL & 2GL considering the lack of vets, let alone point or triangle. These rookies are lucky-Jalyn might end up point if she works hard enough. 

Aaand for the unpopular opinion of the day, Gina shouldn’t be point. It’s the most photographed position so unless they just don’t include her face... I can’t see it. I’m not being mean but last season she was lookkng pissed off or bitchy most of the time and this year it looks like she’s stuck in a joker like smile. This isn’t her thing, even if she’s one of the strongest dancers.

And Lacey could absolutely go for a 6th year. She’s 23 and most of the rookies are her age so she could definitely do another year and Kelli might want to keep her if a lot of vets are retiring.

Have y'all seen the CMT MTT bonus clip of the Bimini shoot. The photographer gets really creepy with Gina and he says "her body is phenomenal ... BUT getting the face just right ..." Gina thanks him after the shoot in her little Paris Hilton voice. The whole scene made me want to gag. Yuck!

To me, it looks like Maddie's right hip is shifted forward (at least in comparison to Tasha's). Her hip and ribcage are pulled forward, which is naturally going to make one look heavier. Not saying she hasn't gained weight, but I think this picture is very deceiving, as is often the case with action shots.
